ens h. r. yeager, repair officer Without watertight integrity, BREMERTON is like a city in the path of a raging river, helpless, but with it she can survive severe damage as well as rough weather. Romeo Division, the repair division, has as its primary concern the ship's water- tight integrityf its ability to remain afloat. Q lt also numbers among its duties the raising and lowering of the ships anchor as part of the Special Sea Detail, and assisting in the launching or receiving of the helicopter. R Division is also responsible for the operation and upkeep of all the ship's diving equipment, and the supervision of other divisions in damage control, Atomic, Biological, and Chemical Defense. Romeo Division operates three workshops under the supervision of Ens H. R. Yeager and ship's carpenter, CWO W2 M. Ellis. The shops are active in the construction, repair and maintenance of numerous parts and equipment necessary to the ship's operating efficiency The metalsmlth shop is responsible for repairs to the shlp's hull and fittings The pipe shop maintains and repairs the shlp's piping and valves, including drainage and sanitary systems while the carpenter shop is responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of all damage control equipment as well as the wood work and repairs on the shlp's boats Also operating out of the latter busy space are the alr testing door and hatch repair groups Romeo Division maintains a Shlp's Security watch in Damage Control Central with patrols constantly checking compartments and watching for any signs of flooding fires or other casualties hazardous to the ship or her personnel m. ellis, w-3, ship's carpenter pipefitters, the ship's plumbers, at work . 56 I 5' 1-u- 1 R 5 . . , .
